2018 Project 365 – Week Eleven

If I thought last week was weird, then this one told me to
hold its beer! Snow, flowers, crochet, rinse, repeat…

Our new spring flag!

Did I say spring? If you can’t see the video, here is a
transcript: The Bug, looking out the back door, “My current situation. This is
snow. I live in North Carolina. What the heck.”

A good evening to take a picture of my latest afghan square.
There’s something about these colors that seem art deco to me – I’m not really
sure why. The white & dark heather gray?

I’ve been trying to make a hat
for my aunt Mimi (Emily), but I keep having to frog it. I’m not sure what the
problem is, but we may have to give up on this yarn for hat purposes.

Again? And again I say, “what the heck!”

My last square in this pattern.
This blanket is turning out way more Christmassy than I expected!

Red Shouldered Hawk!

Ready for pretty much any glasses
situation.

Makes me smile.

Yup. Busted!

As Dr. M said, years ago, we started bringing home rocks
from places we visited. Some are big, like the ones from various stops along
Appalachian byways. Others are small...pebbles worn smooth by Lake Erie, etc.
there are rocks from Lincoln and Catawba Cos, NC, and rocks from Greene, Clark,
and Champaign Cos, OH. There are also a few bits of brick, etc., from here and
there. Seemed fitting on St. Patrick’s Day to rebuild our cairn here in
Plateau, near the new maple that is growing to replace the one that had to be
cut down last February.

I’m currently working part time for my old job and my new
job, just for a couple of months while I get the person at my old job trained.
My new job has had some setbacks, but I think we’re going to get up &
running full speed again very soon, so the future looks like it’s going to be
really busy! What do you think your week is going to look like?

You may not like the snow you had, but I enjoyed the cooler weather we had in Florida. February was way too hot (mid to high 80's) and broke all sorts of records. Hey, at least you won't have the blizzards that the northeast is getting.

I love that you guys collect rocks in the places you visit. I have a few from Lake Erie, too.

My week is going to be just like last week: busy! *Raises glass to you* (probably should make that a cup of coffee or tea, huh?)

Well, my position WAS eliminated, but the person who ended up having to try to do all of my tasks is very overwhelmed & under-trained, so I agreed to work for a couple of months to get things organized & train her. I agreed to do this because we haven't been paid at my new job - I've been going in mostly in a volunteer capacity while they worked on funding. So I was really bored, but now just as they've gotten me set back up at my old job, the funding came through on the new one. I'm going to be pretty busy for a while!

Enjoyed hearing your voice!Love the cairn idea. I brought back four small rocks from one of our tandem vacations. I've been wanting to paint each one with a reminder of the day.You take such great selfies!Your crochet squares are stunning.Have a great , tho' busy, week!

Born in the south, I lived in Ohio for nearly 20 years. Now I’m back “home.” Follow along as I travel barely remembered paths and learn how to be southern again. For example, will I ever get my accent back? Stay tuned!
